While there are no fixed rules yet, I recommend the following structure:

WebShop/
   Classes/
      Controller/
         Admin/
            AccountController.php
            ...
         Shop/
            OrderController.php
      Domain/
         Model/
            Customer.php           
            Order.php
            ...
   Resources/
      Private/
         Templates/
            Admin/
               Account/
                  index.html
                  new.html
             Shop/
                 Order/
                   ...

The structure below "Domain" is just up to you, you can put all models into the same directory (if they are shared by multiple sub packages) or organize them in sub namespaces.

Something you need to know is that the controller name which you specify in a route now includes the sub package name! Here's an example:

- name: 'Account - Login'
  uriPattern: 'admin/account(/{@action})'
  defaults:
    '@package':    'WebShop'
    '@controller': 'Admin\Account'
    '@action':     'index'

I hope that helps ...

Cheers,
robert
